The Cadwalader team is led by Christopher Cox (Corporate), Ira Schacter (Corporate) and special counsel Aly El Hamamsy (Corporate) in New York; and Angus Duncan (Capital Markets) and Adam Blakemore (Tax) in London.

In April, Cadwalader also advised Elan in the restructuring of its Tysabri® collaboration with Biogen Idec. On closing of the transaction, Elan received a cash payment of $3.25 billion, together with a double-digit, tiered royalty right on future worldwide net sales of Tysabri®.
